A lover of all dogs, big and small.
Pet care experience
It all started with my late dog, Tucker. A lab mix who was rescued and had aggressive tendencies towards dogs & people. After watching almost every episode of The Dog Whisperer (Cesar Milan) I began to help Tucker get past those fears. I loved taking him on long walks and eventually was walking him off leash. He’s gone 9 years now but I still use the techniques I learned with every dog I interact with. I consider myself the go-to walker, sitter, boarder with a number of family and friends. When the dogs are with me, nothing else comes first. And your furry friends would be no different!
Reviews
I highly recommend Conor P. for anyone needing to entrust someone to watch their family pet. Having entrusted him with my pets on several occasions, including my wedding day. Conor's genuine love for animals is evident in the way he interacts with them, providing not just the essentials but also lots of love and attention. His communication is top-notch; he always keeps me updated with messages and photos, which puts my mind at ease while I'm away. Conor is not only reliable and attentive but also goes above and beyond to ensure your pet gets everything they need even training. I will be using him again soon.
I highly recommend Conor to care for your best friend your pup(s). He has taken care my dog and my daughters dog while we were on a family vacation and he did an amazing job, He walked them, played with them, fed them and spent quality time with them. Also my dog suffers from seizures and he managed her meds for her on a daily basis. He is probably one of the most trustworthy people I know. Conor is truly a great guy and I would not hesitate to have him care for my girl again.

When I board at my apartment, your dog is guaranteed to get exercise as I take all visitors on a walk for potty breaks as the nearest grassy area is a park 2 blocks away. But when we go for a dedicated walk, I usually log at least 1-2 miles depending on how healthy your dog is. Walks are the exercise and I try to keep them focused on staying on the sidewalk until it’s time for them to go to the bathroom. That focus helps to drain their energy. I always take time intro the dogs to the apartment properly. I don’t immediately let them loose until we’ve had a chance to walk around together inside. It helps them get comfortable with the new environment and with me. If you enforce prohibiting your dog from being on couches and/or beds, I can certainly continue that during their stay. If not, I don’t mind snuggling with a dog on the couch or bed (as long as they wait for me to invite them up.)

I work full time but have a very predictable schedule and very rarely work on the weekends. The office is less than a 10 minute drive from my apartment.
